Hi,
I have a printer on a Fedora FC4 box.
So far I have tried two techniques for setting it up for remote
access from another FC4 box. If I use the web based tool at
localhost:631 I can't set the samba password and things fail
because of authentication failures. If use printconf on the
remote box I can set the password, but I can't specify the
..ppd file for the printer.
I thought I struggled with this problem in the past and
managed to get things working by setting it up with on
tool and adjusting it with the other.
But I can't reproduce the solution. If I fix the password
I break the .ppd, if I fix the .ppd I break the password.
I need the .ppd to do double sided printing.
Thanks,
Drew
